Howdy,
I did not see an introduction area, so thought I'd post here. I've been lurking for a few weeks no, so thought I would de-lurk. This is an excellent forum. I run a music related internet forum, much smaller than Saw Creek, and so I can really appreciate the time and effort that has gone into this forum... especially the degree to which it is kept on such a civil basis - I congratulate the administrators and moderators! (and you have my deepest sympathy too - haha...)
In any case, I've been a woodworker off and on for about 35 years, my degree is in Industrial Arts (taught public school one year, but started having kids and a need for more lucrative work, so ended up as an Operations Director for a private non-profit, looking after the computer network and physical plant). I've made furniture, turned wood and built musical instruments - mostly acoustic guitars, but a few ukuleles and mandolins. My current woodworking interest is building Arts & Crafts furniture, the kids are gone, and the spouse and I are going to get a little more serious about fixing up our 1917 bungalow house in its original style. Even though I have too many projects going -- I'll probably join he mission chair communal build. FYI, the creek has already cost me a fortune- I've ordered lumber from Mike Mrogan, and taken advantage of clamp and saw blade deals and the LOML may find my hidden stash of purchases soon!
Looking forward to getting to know some of you folks. Thanks for a great forum.
John
